Why "Dogwood Studio"?

The name, Dogwood Studio" picked itself. The builder of the house associated with the property loved dogwood trees. She had about four or five of them originally and the wrought-iron work had a dogwood design. Unfortunately, time took its toll on on all of it...the trees were over 50 years old as so many in our subdivision and had come to the end of their lifespans. The wrought iron was fragile but we saved a few pieces and we'll figure out how that will be used later. Anyway, Miss Marguerite Bowles, the original home owner, lived there when we moved in next door. She was a pistol.

So, when Mickey said we should buy the property and "build the studio of my dreams" back in early 2016, I began to envision the place and different names. Really, when the name first came to me, there was no other candidate that seemed to fit. I am currently working on the logo and am excited about it. So, now you know, as Paul Harvey said, "the rest of the story."
